The aim of this work is to predict fatigue life of aluminum alloy wires 6201-T81 containing geometric discontinuities using the Theory of Critical Distances (TCD). These wires were taken from a 900 MCM All Aluminum Alloy Conductor (AAAC 900 MCM) used in overhead power transmission lines. The equivalent stress was evaluated by means of the Point Method (PM) and the Volume Method (VM), based on the maximum principal stress (sigma(1)). Regarding the latter method, a new approach to evaluate the equivalent stress inside a material volume defined by the shape of a sphere is presented. The relation between the critical distance and the number of cycles to failure was calibrated using two distinct methodologies: the first one uses two S-N curves, ...
